It's with a heavy heart that I must inform you that this site, Guild Wars Guru, will be shutting down on July 1st and will remain in Archive Mode. Over the past 11 years, we've become, and continued to remain, the #1 fansite for Guild Wars, and it's all because to you guys. Without such a strong and passionate community, Guru would have never made it this far and so we thank you for that.

And while we will be saying good-bye to our home here, we will continue to host forums for the GW community over at our sister site, Guild Wars 2 Guru. In fact, you are more than welcome to head on over now and begin posting. If you have any threads you'd like to transfer over, now would be the time.

So once again thank you, and especially those that contributed their time and knowledge to make Guru the amazing place it was. We'll see you over at Guild Wars 2 Guru!

The mursaat hidden city is said to be along the ullen river in prophesies right?

"The Mursaat are a race of powerful spell casters. They are humanoid in shape, and float above the ground dressed in golden attire."

"The mysterious race of the Seers is an enemy of the Mursaat for reasons that are also unknown at this time."

"Mursaat can be found in the Southern Shiverpeaks and the Ring of Fire Islands, and in lore it is said that the Unseen Ones have a city deep inside the Maguuma Jungle. The ferryman Old Joness speaks of a shadow hanging over the Ullen River that hides what lies beyond its shores. He says it is cast by something "unseen"."

"In some Elonian legends, they have the power to act unseen. Like humans, they’re allegedly capable of choosing a path of good or evil. In a sense, djinn really can act unseen—many are shapeshifters, capable of assuming a human form when interacting with human beings and other species."

"Most djinn are bound to the locations and places they protect, most commonly rivers, lakes, and stretches of desert."

"In more recent accounts, adventurers have shared stories of djinn who offered them magical knowledge and powerful magical items... including some salvaged from mighty heroes who dared to disturb the djinn."

"The Hidden City of Ahdashim is an explorable area in the northern area of Vabbi, Elona continent. It is a well-hidden city controlled by the Vabbian princes and the Djinn which serve to protect them."

well Ring of Fire is where the Door of Khomali is so they have reason to be there originally. And the Shiverpeaks is a large staging area for "The Great Destroyer" which gives more reason for them to be around that area too.

The Mursaat are a powerful race of spellcasters who seem to be advanced and know more than humans (eg the Flameseeker Prophecies).They do everything they can to stop the extinction of their race as it was fortold.

Djinn are guardians. The ones in Sorrows Furnace seemed to be bound to the Iron Golem and the ones in Elona seem to protect certain places/people in Vabbi.

The only things similiar are the facts they both float.

I wish people would stop instantly comparing when the word Unseen comes up.

I liked the theory i read somewhere that the Enchanted of the Crystal Desert is enchanted old mursaat armor, before the mursaat "ascended" and learnt the power of being "floaty-light" and wore new, gold armor.

I don't think the Djinn and Mursaat have anything in common, tbh, I think the Mursaat have more in common with Margonites than Djinn...at least they're the same shapes and float in the same way, particularly the Margonite Warlocks.

I'm very intrigued about the seers, I had originally thought they could be Margonites...or at least a branch of them, sent to the shiverpeaks to aid in the destruction of the Mursaat. Alternatively, haveing now seen more screenshots of GW:EotN, they could be linked to the Great Destroyer. There are a lot of "black" creatures it would seem...maybe these Seers are agents of the Great Destroyer who wants the Mursaat out of the way for different reasons.

I'm really excited about Eyes of the North and can't wait to see if everything else that needs explaining, gets explained.

Well Celest, I read over on the Gamespot topic that is currently going here on the forums that Ben Miller said that they plan on bringing old characters and finishing some of their stories as well, so hopefully the story of the Seers we encountered will be finished. The question we have until then is this though: Are the Mursaat agents of good or on such a level of Chaotic/Insane Good that they will even attempt to hurt their fellow Good aligned beings in the name of Good, or are they just the same in the way of Evil?

Also - something I noticed last night clicking on things. Jade Bows/Armor faces are much like that of Abbadon's face/mask. We really didn't get to see anything tied or explained about the Murr's and Marg's, but it would be nice to understand more.
